question about underfolder stocks

[Scattergun]

What is the little hook on the butt plate on the underfolder stock for?

I would think it does no more than rest against the lower handguard.gives a flatter area so you would not get the half circle from the folder digging in when pressure is applied when folded.

Bingo.

You're still going to scar a wooden handguard though, just not as badly.

In the same aisle should be some clear soft rubber ones that wont hold moisture.

I believe I 'll pass on the pad, it is an AK, not a high grade target rifle.

whatever rings your bell.

[chuckles]

It is an AK but you can still treat like a "target rifle" without ill effect.
